*After foolishly posting this on the wrong forum, here's another attempt...*

I've transported a couple of Stormies onto a lift (in a different cog; during a cutscene) with the intention of the lift activating and going to the floor the player is on when he activates a certain door or crosses a certain adjoin. I've tried both ways with no luck. I'm completely baffled because it's not supposed to be a complicated cog...

}

end

Rhettman: No, I don't use such long comments, I added that here for clarification. Also, I wasn't clear about the "storage" sector in the other post. I think it is less misleading now.

And you thought Chewie was hairy...

The only thing I see to change is that when you check for LinkID numbers you should use
" if (GetSenderId() == 2) " and " if (GetSenderId() == 1) " rather than using GetSenderRef().
Hope that helps.

Gah! I knew it would be something simple and stupid. That got it. Thanks!
